It’s been a busy and joyful time for us with winter break and the holidays. We want to extend a heartfelt thank-you to all the community members and businesses who stepped up during a season when giving is so important. Because of your generosity—through donated items and monetary gifts—we were able to help make the holidays truly magical for our residents.

Our residents had a wonderful time celebrating and were thrilled to receive so many items from their wishlists. We are also incredibly grateful to Santa 🎅 aka FHLBank Topeka for stopping by with a brand-new Blackstone! This was a much-needed addition, and we couldn’t be more excited to have it.

Thank you all for your kindness, generosity, and continued support—it truly means the world to us. ❤️🎄💚

We had a great time at Washburn University’s Internship Fair this week! 💙🤍

Our team loved talking with students about internship opportunities at Florence Crittenton and sharing the work we do in mental health across our community. We’re proud to help train the next generation of mental health professionals — and grateful to partner with six universities across Kansas to provide meaningful internship experiences.

Investing in students means investing in the future of care, and we’re excited to continue supporting their journey. ✨
